Why are online bracing products less expensive than the ones purchased in a physician office?

When you purchase your brace online, there are certain services and benefits that you won’t receive. Services that you will receive from your medical professional in the office but not from your online retailer may include:

assessing your medical condition to determine the most appropriate brace

measuring you to determine the appropriate brace size

assessing brace fit

billing your insurance company for the brace

in person brace return or exchange if necessary

Comparing the cost of a device online vs. the cost of the same device provided in a medical professional’s office is not a valid comparison. As the consumer, you have to decide what is right for you and consider the trade-offs. Sure, online products tend to be less expensive – but you also lose the important services and benefits outlined above. Please make your decision carefully and, when in doubt, consult your medical provider and insurance company.

Moneyback Guarantee

Quite simply, we want your purchase to work for you. Our no-risk, unconditional 90-Day Money Back Guarantee allows you ample time to see if your investment in your health is doing the job you expect and deserve. If, after trying the product, you are not completely satisfied, you may exchange the item or return the product for a refund of the full purchase price (minus shipping & handling) within 90 days of the purchase. Be advised the return must be received in our warehouse prior to the end of the 90 days for your refund to be processed. Please note: The DonJoy Defiance Custom Knee Brace does not qualify for the 90 Day Money Back Guarantee because it is custom made.

Product Details

Product Description

The Short walking boot offers a solution to a number of indications related to the forefoot, mid-foot and hind foot injuries, as well as some ankle injuries.

The main indications for the Short are:

Metatarsal fracture

Stress and stable fracture of the foot

Bunionectomy, hallux valgus

Soft tissue injury

Severe ankle sprain

The Short has a durable, semi-rigid shell that helps support the limb while providing protection. The pre-inflated front panel and two adjustable distal aircells, housed within the shell, provide compression and support. SoftStrike technology absorbs and dissipates shock, while the light weight and lab-tested rocker sole combine to encourage a natural gait and a continuation of everyday activities.

Features & Benefits

Customizable, independent aircells (NO separate hand bulb). Integrated inflation system puts the user in control for an individualized fit

Custom and comfortable fit. Trimmable and heat moldable semi-rigid shell makes it easy to custom-fit the brace to the patient. Sleek, open-frame design provides ventilation and maximum patient protection and compliance. Shell contours around the malleoli, eliminating pressure for sustained comfort. AirSelect boots have improved width around the ankle area as well as uniformed sizing throughout the various sizes of the boot (XS-XL).

Ease of application. Three-strap system evenly disperses pressure, eliminates pooling of edema. Integrated inflation system is intuitive and permits quick and easy customization of each aircell.

I have been wearing this boot (one on each foot for multiple metatarsal frax). Holidays quickly approaching -- but not my transition dates --

Does this boot come in black?? Please say yes....:)

I am sorry but no it does not come in another color

Naomi at 9/11/2014 9:48 PM

What is the weight of this boot? (aircast air select short walking boot)

Thank you for your question. The weight of the Air Select Short will depend on the size, but will range from 1.25 pounds to 2 pounds. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Linda at 9/8/2014 4:35 PM

I have a hairline fracture in my ankle bone (two weeks ago) and I have the air cast walking boot. I am finding it bothersome wearing it in bed - I wear it about 80% of the day. Is it necessary that I continue to wear it at night while sleeping?

Linda
That would be a question for your physician

Millie at 7/8/2014 5:05 AM

I started wearing this boot yesterday afternoon for a hairline fracture to the base of my toes & I'm non-weight bearing for now.
I have started to form a blister on my heel for some reason & I asking for suggestions to stop the blister from forming more.
Also, can I wear a lightweight sock to stop any friction as long as I don't have any open sores while wearing this boot?

Millie
Please contact your physician and let them know about the blister. It is strange that you are not ambulating on the foot and you have developed a blister. You can wear a sock, and make sure that you are pumping up the aircells in the boot to eliminate as much movemement as possible in the foot. The more movment the more friction, just make sure that you are not making it so tight that you are cutting off your circulation.

Kris greenwood at 6/26/2014 3:11 PM

Do you sell just the liner? I have another 6 weeks in the boot and need an additional liner. This one is wearing out.

Kris
I am sorry we do not have a replacement liner for that boot

Michele at 6/23/2014 12:20 PM

I am preparing to have foot surgery on a lisfranc fracture - I will need to be non weight-bearing for 6-ish weeks. I presume that this boot cannot be used for that and is used later in the recovery process?

Michele
The boot can be worn after surgery if your physician is okay with that.

Cristin at 6/8/2014 3:03 PM

Where can I purchase a replacement liner for this boot? I have another 4 weeks to go in mine and with the warm weather, it would be nice to have a back up liner for when I'm washing and air drying the other one.

Christin
That insole is not available for sale on BetterBraces. You will need to order that direct from DonJoy at 800-336-6596

Chelle at 5/25/2014 8:06 PM

How well does this boot protect the foot after bunionectomy with toe fusion, and hammertoe surgery? Is walking in this boot considered partial or full weight bearing?

Thank you!

Thank you for your question. The AirCast AirSelect Short Walking Boot is designed to be worn after a bunionectomy. It will allow for partial weight bearing for the foot.

Lori Sloane at 5/20/2014 5:16 PM

Will this boot work on bone marrow edema or heel pain?

The Boot will immobilize the foot and ankle which will decrease pain while walking

Greg at 5/16/2014 9:35 PM

hi- im not clear if this brace is a better option than the 84.00 air cast short walking boot
what does this one do that the other doesn't.. looks like the air bladders are custom but what else. I have a 4th metatarsal stress fracture as well as a stress fracture on the navicualr. I need a good walking boot. i was given a rebound air walked by my dr and it is a poor design and not immobilizing my foot. pls help

Greg
The AirSelect Short is a re-designed model from the Aircast SP walker. The aircells have been changed for easier inflation and the front panel is pre-inflated. The boot was made lighter than the older model. The AirSelect walking boots have been optimized to provide a more natural gait to the patient, and less hip differential, which has been a cause of discomfort for some patients. The bottom of the sole has a improved non-marking skid resistant rubber tread for greater traction and longer wear.

Taryn Boase at 3/28/2014 4:14 PM

Wii this air boot be suitable for rupture plantar fascia?

What is the difference between top model and the bottom of the range model?

Taryn
The Airselct Short Walking boot should be ok for that injury. The difference between that boot and the Airselct Elite is the hieght, and the Elite has three air chambers compared to two chambers in the short.

Quality

After severe bunionectomy with hammertoe surgery, I was out of commission for weeks. Luckily after the first week, my podiatrist fitted me with the Aircast AirSelect Short Walking Boot, and I was able to leave the recliner and walk a bit as pain allowed. This boot met the partial weight bearing requirements, while protecting my toes that had pins sticking out along with a metal plate.

My 5 year old granddaughter added bling to the boot, and I get many comments on it!
